8 LORD is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness.
9 He will not always chide, nor will he keep [it] forever.
10 He has not dealt with us according to our sins, nor rewarded us according to our iniquities.
11 For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his loving kindness toward those who fear him.
12 As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us.
